   now i've lost my feeding guide (the one with the carrot down the side plunket give you) with all the ages etc.
does anyone have one that could give me the list of foods etc for ages.
 they dont give you them here jsut kind of expect you to know.
 
 also are iceblocks ok to give a 6month old?? i cant remember when we gave haleigh her first taste of one (lemonade only in this house) james took haleighs off her yesterday and started to try eat it.

   Will be fine for a 6mo if they don't mind the cold    As for the chart, I think I'll leave that to someone who has one readily at their fingertips    |

   It is a big list Monique, but these are the stage 2 (6-7 month) foods (I just happen to have the big carrot sheet in front of me!):
 add to first foods:
 melon, plum, nectarines (no skins, pips)
 Cooked: broccoli, puha, taro, parsnips, yams, courgettes, cauli
 Baby ground cereals, crackers, white bread
 cooked meat - lamb, chicken, beef
 watties red jars, cans, cereal
 
 Then on the carrot on the side it also says these foods at 6-7 months:
 beans (green)
 egg yolk (unless there is family history of allergies)
 nashi
 rusks
 toast fingers

   Is that what you want?  Let me know if you want me to type out the stage 3/8-9 months onwards stuff too.

   my thriving under 5 book i got with james had nothing in it with a feeding chart, haleighs did though, its amazing how much has changed in 2yrs.
thanks,sweet he can have crackers doesnt make me feel so bad when haleigh tries to feed hers to him.
 
 i didnt think i was going crazy when i looked at the heinz baby food thinking nz had 6-7months on red jars here its 8 months on the red jars and all the meats on the blue jars, and their selection is no where near as good as in nz.
